I was thinking of wetboxing them at around 68 - 70. Think that's to much to soon?

Lol we can discuss that too:-) Edibles rule! I have rice crisp treats from Colorado that will make you drool and not care:-)
I have 3 boxes that I use as long term storage and I keep the humidity around 60, worried about mold If I want to bring them back to normal humidity how high would you go and for how long? Temp is steady at 68f Any advice?

For long term storage I’d shoot for 68 - 70. Any lower and the natural oils start dying out. Keep in mind that if you do raise the rh, keep a close eye for signs of mold. Btw, most storage areas at the sight of manufacturer go by the 70/70 rule for a reason.
For the container where you keep stuff you’ll smoke within say a month I’d keep that at whatever rh & temp you find most palatable.

That’s one of the reasons that likes likes Fuente cigars. Many better sphos order directly from Fuente which means a much shorter stay in uncontrolled conditions.
I'd heed what Buckwheat advises. I've sampled some of his stock, and whatever he was doing worked wonderfully.

Word.
If I could pick a magic number that would never change, it would be 63%.
I have cigars well over 10 years old that have never seen humidity above 65% ……..all have aged perfectly some with plume but never any mold.My target is 63%.I smoked a Tat Cojonu 2006 from a box dated Oct 2009 tonite…….simply fantastic.
